+Becoming a contributor and getting commit access
+================================================
+
+1. Get an account at http://www.zope.org.  Pick a user id that is a valid Unix
+   user id. Include this id when you fill out the contributor form.
+
+2. Print, fill out and sign the `Zope Contributor Agreement <Contributor.pdf>`_
+
+
+3. Submit the agreement in one of 3 ways (in order from fastest to slowest):
+
+   - Email a scanned copy to jim at zope.com.  In the email, CC and also mention
+     an existing contributor who can vouch for you. 
+
+     Turnaround for this is typically less than a business day, unless I miss
+     your email.
+
+   - Fax the agreement to: +1.703.995.0412
+
+     Include the name and email address of an existing contributor who can
+     vouch for you.  Please write this in the margins of the agreement.  If I ever
+     revise the agreement, I'll include a space for this....
+
+     Turnaround for this is typically a business day or two, mainly because I
+     don't get faxes directly.  Someone has to forward faxes to me by email.
+
+   - Mail the agreement to the address given on the agreement.
+
+     Include the name and email address of an existing contributor who can
+     vouch for you.  Please write this in the margins of the agreement.  If I ever
+     revise the agreement, I'll include a space for this....
+
+     Turnaround for this is typically a few day, if mailed from the US to an
+     almost indeterminate amount of time if mailed from outside of the US.
+     Agreements mailed from outside the US have taken weeks on occasion.
+
+4. Wait for an acknowledgement. If you don't get this in a reasonable amount of
+   time, then nag jim at zope.com, or J1m on the freenode #zope3 IRC channel.  A
+   reasonable time depends on the way the agreement was sent, as described above.
+
+4. Upload your SSH public key at: https://cvs.zope.org/upload-key.html
+
+   When you go to that page, you'll get a basic auth login prompt.  Use your
+   www.zope.org login and password.
+
+   If you have trouble, **do not ask Jim Fulton for help.**  Ask for help on
+   the IRC channels. People there may ask me to look at ssh logs on the server or
+   at the uploaded keys, as I am able to access those.
+
+   One thing to keep in mind is that the user id you use to access the
+   subversion and CVS repositories is your zope.org user id.  This means that you
+   might have to specify a id explicitly. I know of two ways to do this:
+
+   - Include it in the subversion url: svn+ssh://your_zope_org_id@svn.zope.org/repos/main/some_path
+
+   - Specify the user if to use for svn.zope.org (or cvs.zope.org) in your SSH configuration.
+     See the SSH documentation for details.
